ABSTRACT The report provides both statewide and school district summative data concerning language minority (LM) student demographics in Maine. Statewide data include a demographic overview, annual LM enrollments, high-concentration LM areas, distribution of minority languages, by language or language group, number of Maine public schools enrolling limited-English-proficient (LEP) youth, native languages spoken, methods used to identify LEP students, personnel support for LEP students, and LM performance on the Maine Education Assessment. District-by-district data include a list of school districts with "Lau" plans, a count of minority language children, subgroup data on LEP children, support services for LEP children beyond the regular classroom, instructor credentials for teaching LEP children, and federal projects. A separate section is devoted to data on LM and LEP students in individual private schools. A glossary is provided. (MSE)

19 9 LANGUAGE MINORITIES' PERFORMANCE on the MAINE EDUCATION ASSESSMENT: 1997-1998

State Legislation

Originally implemented in 1985 as result of the Educational Reform Act of 1984

Grade Levels Assessed Annually

Grades 4, 8, and 11

Content Areas Assessed

Reading, writing, math, science, social studies, and humanities.

Construction and Administration

Implemented in 1995 as an open-response format. Test content was reviewed by an advisory committee. The test in each of the areas of science, social studies, health, and arts and humanities consist of 24 open-response questions. Four performance levels in reading and math were established by the student-based constructed-response methods. Percentages of students at different performance levels are reported for each subject area tested. Writing is measured by direct writing assessments (i.e., writing samples in response to prompts). Detailed evidence of the MEA's quality of reliability and validity is available on request.

Identification of Language Minority Subgroups

Monolingual children - children whose communicative competence is limited to English. Bilingual English fluent - children whose communicative competence extends to two or more languages; English skills of reading, writing, speaking, and listening are at cognition levels equivalent to English-only students of comparable academic standing and maturation. Limited English proficient students - communicative competence in English is limited in at least one of the following: reading, writing, speaking, or listening. Identification of language minority students is at the discretion of each school's MEA administrator.

Language Minority Subgroup Results

Graphs on the following pages show performance on the MEA for language minority subgroups tested. By relatively small margins, bilingial English fluent students out-performed the other two groups in most subject areas and grade levels. Bilingual English fluent students performed at the Advanced/Distinguished levels in greater frequency than the other two groups in reading, writing and math at all three grade levels. Limited English proficient students' performance scores are lowest in most subjectareas except at grade four.

What the Scores Mean

On the next pages are graphs showing how language minority sub-groups performed on the 1997- 98 Maine Educational Assessment for Grades 4, 8, and 11.

Scaled Scores

Scaled scores are reported for the subject areas of science, arts and humanities, social studies, and health. Health education was not assessed for Grade 11.Scaled scores are used to report the results because of their ease of interpretation and ability to be used to evaluate the results.

In order to develop the scale, the statewide average was set to 250 in 1985-86 for every content area except writing. For these areas, scores larger than 250 mean that performance was above the statewide average for 1985-86. For writing, the state average was adjusted in 1994 basedon the results of a special study evaluating the changes in writing performance over several years.

Scaled scores can range from 100 to 400.If a group average is below 100 or above 400, it is printed as 100 or 400, respectively.Scores of 100 do not mean no questions were answered correctly, just as scores of 400 do not mean all questions were answered correctly. Suchscores indicate achievement levels far below or far above the statewideaverage. Scaled scores in a subject accurately represent the performance of a group of students tested in a particular year: Results are reported for groups of students of five or more only. Results are not given for smaller groups because of considerations of confidentiality. Percentages may not add to 100 percent either due to roundoff error or because of non-response by some students.

Subgroup results not only allow school staffs to monitor the performance of particular groups of interest, they enable the readers to identify factors that appear to relate to performance and compare their students to students statewide with respect to those factors.

Performance Levels

Performance levels described as distinguished and advanced, basic and novice are reported as percentages for language minority participants who participated in the test. Areas measured using these performance level designations are reading, writing, and mathematics for grades 4, 8, and 11.

Performance Levels for Reading

Distinguished Maine readers demonstrate the ability to see implications and extend applications and connections beyond the obvious. These students are insightful, understand complex ideas, control reading strategies needed to construct meaning from various types of material, and use reference skills effectively.

Advanced Maine readers demonstrate full understanding of the text and can link ideas within and among texts. These readers' answers to questions are complete, demonstrate control of reading strategies needed to construct meaning from various types of material, and show knowledge of reference skills.

Basic Maine readers demonstrate better understanding of some types of texts than others. These students may make important connections among ideas within some texts or in some responses, but the demonstration of this ability may not be consistent across texts. Some readers may be consistent in making obvious connections and relatively low-level inferences across texts. These readers demonstrate some control of reading strategies needed to construct meaning from various types of material and know standard reference skills.

Novice Maine readers demonstrate limited understanding of reading material beyond obvious stated facts. These readers' control of strategies appears to be dependent on the particular type or difficulty level of the text. These students demonstrate limited ability to use reference skills independently.

222 Performance Levels for Writing*

Distinguished Maine writers craft richly developed essays that incorporate carefully chosen details, a distinctive tone and style of writing, and rich and effective language.The personal interest and involvement of the writers are obvious, and the readers are drawn into and led through the pieces of writing with subtlety and skill.

Advanced Maine writers create fully developed essays with relevant, often strong, details, a consistent tone, and demonstrated control of the topic and the task. The writers are obviously interested and involved in the writing and use language effectively, including an appropriate variety in sentence structure and wording.

Basic Maine writers create moderately well-developed essays in which most of the details are relevant and appropriate. The writers seem to be interested and involved in the writing, the essays are focused and exhibit some variety in wording and sentence structure.Errors in sentence structure, word choice and usage, spelling, capitalization, or punctuation sometimes limit the effectiveness of the writing.

Novice Maine writers produce essays characterized by limited development, focus, and details. These writers may tell a complete story, but their writing lacks elaboration and a sense of fullness. They use limited variety in wording and sentence structure.Sometimes their writing is too simplistic to reveal the students' understanding of grammar/mechanics.

Performance Levels for Mathematics

Distinguished Maine students demonstrate in-depth understanding of mathematics by applying sound reasoning to solve non-routine problems using efficient and sometimes innovative strategies.These students may connections among mathematical concepts and extend their understanding of specific problems to more global and parallel situations. They can communicate mathematically with effectiveness and sophistication.

Advanced Maine students solve routine and many non-routine problems and determine the reasonableness of the solutions using estimation, patterns, and relationships, connections among mathematical concepts, and effective organization of data.These students make important connections of mathematics to real-world situations, do accurate work, and communicate mathematical strategies effectively.

Basic Maine student can solve routine problems, but are challenged to develop appropriate strategies for non-routine problems. Solutions sometimes lack accuracy; reasoning and communications are sometimes limited.

Novice Maine students demonstrate some success with computational skills, but have great difficulty applying those skills to problem-solving situations.Mathematical reasoning and communication skills are minimal.

Bilingual education:An approach which utilizes the students' native language (e.g., French, Passamaquoddy, Spanish...) and cultural factors in instructing these students in their academic subjects. English as a second language is a separate component of this approach. Dropout: An individual who was enrolled in 1997-98 school year but is not presently enrolled or was not enrolled on October 1, 1997, but was expected to be enrolled and has not graduated from high school or completed a state or school approval education program and does not meet any of these exclusionary conditions:transfer to another school or other approved education program; absent due to suspension or school-approved illness; death. For further information on dropout designations, contact Mr. Frank Antonucci at 287-5111. English language proficiency assessment:Use of a multiple-criteria assessment device to determine the extent to which a student is fluent in English in the areas of speaking, listening, reading, or writing. English as a second language (ESL): A structured language acquisition approach designed to teach English to students whose native language is not English. In low-incidence situations, this instruction may occur through "pull-out" from regular English literacy instruction, and students are submersed in mainstream subject areas for most of the school day. Services are overseen by a certified teacher endorsed in ESL. ESL tutorial pullout:Students whose native language is not English receive one-on-one or very small group instruction in English. Services are provided by personnel not credentialed in ESL. Full-time equivalent (FTE):The percentage of time that the services provider is paid in comparison to a full-time position (e.g., full-time = 1.0; half-time = .50; 25% time = .25). Limited English proficient (LEP): A reference to students whose primary or native language is not English and who have difficulty in using English (i.e., reading, writing, speaking, listening) that the opportunity to participate effectively in school may be denied when English is the exclusive language of instruction.Such students require ESL and/or bilingual education services. Maine endorsement in bilingual education: Required of certified teachers in bilingual education, K-12 who teach content subjects in non-English languages (24 credit hours in B.E.; 24 credit hours for professional certificate). Maine endorsement in ESL:Required of certified teachers of ESL, K-12 (15 credit hours in ESL in separate cluster areas; 24 credit hours for professional certificate). SDAIE (Specially Designed Academic Instruction in English): An approach that utilizes the simplification of the English language to teach ESL and subject area content at the same time (also called "content ESL" or "sheltered English").Actual content is the same as that taught to non-LEP students.
